Winners of our sweepstakes are always announced in our BELLAONLINE SWEEPSTAKE NEWSLETTERS. Winners are announced at least a month after the end of each sweepstakes, to give us time to properly tally up all votes and draw a winner. This website is run out of our homes and going through the postcard deluge takes some time!

Greetings and Salutations!

Happy Hannukah! Merry Christmas! Whatever holiday you celebrate, that time of year is here! Every holiday is about peace, love, joy, and counting your blessings. Make contact with those you love and let them know how you feel. Pour a cup of cocoa and sit by a warm fire. This season is not about who can get the most presents. It is about realizing how much you already have and expressing your warm feelings for those who are special to you. Find just one person to tell today that they are meaningful in your life.

We have just released our Winter Solstice issue of Mused, the BellaOnline Literary Magazine. This gorgeous magazine is brimming with poetry, short stories, true stories, beautiful photographs, and even a fun play. Pour yourself your favorite cup of tea, lounge back for a moment and read through the pages! If you have a high speed connection I *greatly* suggest you download the PDF version. It is simply stunning. There aren't many places on the web that you can get this type of beautiful magazine for free! We dedicate many hours to bringing you the best artists with zero ads, for zero cost. We want to help promote these artists so they can be discovered and appreciated! Charity is what we do :)

Our featured sponsor this mailing is AnneMaaDesigns.com. Anne's jewelry is simply GORGEOUS. If you get any holiday money you definitely want to swing by to see what jewelry you could buy with it. Of course, be sure to enter her sweepstakes! I just bought a pendant from Anne Maa Designs that is a Kyanite rectangle over a vermeil disc. I adore it. The care she puts into every work of art is quite evident. If you wear an item of jewelry from this shop, you'll get a ton of compliments on it and you can be quite sure that nobody else around you will wear "the same thing". Super fast shipping and friendly customer service from the artist too! AND on top of it all the box wrapping is gorgeous. Highly recommended!

Good luck!
